Today, I have tried my hand, for the first time in many years, at Haiku. For those of you not familiar with Haiku, in its traditional Japanese form, it's is a short poem of seventeen syllables written in three lines of five, seven and five syllables, respectively. Try it, it's fun. I had forgotten. Perhaps I will write one every day and hone my skills. Here are today's first timid attempts.

Feet on cold floor

of old sweet Mexican tiles

absorb vibrations

and

Ancient cobblestones

carry me to places which

allow my heart to sing
